Wow, congrats! Most of the $5500 prequals I have seen talked about ended up being $550 approved haha.

Was that a glitch in those cases or is it somewhat common for a pre-appoval for x amt. to then be a lower amt. after checking your cr's?

I don't know, I saw it a few times. I mean we all know that prequals can turn out very different once an app is submitted. I figured it was just Comenity baiting the hook. Its not like you have any recourse other than closing the card after all.

Oh wow!  I got lucky then but if I were to try for another one any time soon (well I won't) I'm afraid of AA or that happening.  Glad I saw this. thanks!!!!

Thanks Saeren....I just read all that, sux!!!! At least some were able to get cli's but not like what was dangled in front of their noses.  I guess I got lucky once, not counting on a second.
